Recent reports have suggested an association between rotavirus infection and a distinctive pattern of white matter injury (WMI) in neonates with seizures; however, the connection between the two is not fully understood. To evaluate the underlying mechanism, we profiled and compared eight cytokines (IL [interleukin]-1, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IFN- [interferon- ], MCP-1 [monocyte chemoattractant protein-1], MIP-1 [macrophage inflammatory protein-1], and TNF- [tumor necrosis factor-]) in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of 33 neonates with seizures who had no other well-known causes of seizures and 13 control patients (rotavirus-induced gastroenteritis but without seizures). Among the 33 neonates with seizures, 9 showed WMI and all were infected with rotavirus (R + W + ). Among the 24 patients without WMI, 11 were infected with rotavirus (R + W - ) and 13 were not (R - W - ).Only MCP-1 and MIP-1 were different between the groups. MCP-1 was increased in R+ W+ compared with R + W- ( < 0.01), R - W- ( < 0.01), and control ( = 0.03) patients. MIP-1 was decreased in R + W+ compared with R - W- ( < 0.01) and control ( < 0.01), but not R + W- ( = 0.23) patients. MCP-1 and MIP-1 are C-C chemokines that recruit immune cells to the site of inflammation. Our pilot study suggests MCP-1-mediated monocyte recruitment may be linked with this complication caused by rotavirus.
近期报告显示,轮状病毒感染与新生儿惊厥时出现的一种独特的白质损伤(WMI)模式之间存在关联;然而,两者之间的联系尚未完全明确。为评估潜在机制,我们对33例无其他已知惊厥病因的惊厥新生儿及13例对照患者(轮状病毒感染所致肠胃炎但无惊厥)的脑脊液(CSF)中的8种细胞因子(白细胞介素(IL)-1、IL-6、IL-8、IL-10、干扰素(IFN)-γ、单核细胞趋化蛋白-1(MCP-1)、巨噬细胞炎性蛋白-1(MIP-1)和肿瘤坏死因子(TNF)-α)进行了分析和比较。在33例惊厥新生儿中,9例出现WMI且均感染了轮状病毒(R+W+)。在24例无WMI的患者中,11例感染了轮状病毒(R+W-),13例未感染(R-W-)。仅MCP-1和MIP-1在各组之间存在差异。与R+W-组(P<0.01)、R-W-组(P<0.01)和对照组(P=0.03)相比,R+W+组的MCP-1升高。与R-W-组(P<0.01)和对照组(P<0.01)相比,R+W+组的MIP-1降低,但与R+W-组(P=0.23)相比无差异。MCP-1和MIP-1是C-C趋化因子,可将免疫细胞募集到炎症部位。我们的初步研究表明,MCP-1介导的单核细胞募集可能与轮状病毒引起的这种并发症有关。
